So far, quite a lot.

It's a shame they aren't reporting it in the European papers.


Nor, strangely enough, in the North American papers.

On the other hand, we have this lead from an article in the New York
Times for 16 October
(http://www.nytimes.com/2003/10/16/in...st/16ARMS.html):
"American officials in Baghdad have identified at least 30 businesses
and individuals in the United States that investigators said they
suspect sold tens of millions of dollars in military technology to
Iraq before the war...." Imagine that: American firms selling arms to
Saddam Hussein.

I'd suggest that before doing any more France-bashing, you read that
article.
